Thank you Eric,



NASA does not have another candidate.  We hope to hear form other member delegates very quickly.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [CMC] CSTS Working Group Chair

Dear CESG Colleagues,



The current CSS Cross Support Transfer Services (CSTS) WG Chair, Holger Driehahn has taken on the role of the Cloud Data Delivery Standards WG chair which leaves the CSTS WG Chair vacant.  Per the CCSDS Organization and Processes Yellow Book (CCSDS A02x1y4c2), the Area Director for the WG may propose a candidate to be approved by CESG.  Accordingly, I  am happy to  propose and endorse Alexandar Kalkhof for the role Cross Support Transfer Services (CSTS) Working Group.  Mr. Kalkhof currently serves as the Deputy Working Group Chair for the CSTS WG.  Below please find a brief bio for Mr. Kalkhof.



Dear CMC Colleagues,

In the interest of fairness, please let me know if you have a candidate for this role.  If so, forwarding the name and brief bio for the candidate by April 4, 2025 will be much appreciated.



Best regards,

-Erik







---Brief bio for Mr. Kalkhof---

Mr. Kalkhof commenced his professional career at CERN, where he contributed to a project
for the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) as part of his Master's Thesis. His research focused
on software development for a remote database cache system within the ATLAS experiment.

Following his tenure at CERN, Mr. Kalkhof transitioned into the commercial sector,
joining a company specialized in computer vision and 3D camera pattern recognition.
This role allowed him to apply his expertise in software development to cutting-edge
imaging technologies, further broadening his experience in real-time data processing and algorithm development.

Subsequently, after relocating to Munich, Mr. Kalkhof ventured into the e-commerce industry,
contributing to an international start-up. In this role, he leveraged his technical skills
to enhance digital platforms, optimize performance, and support the scalability of
web-based services in a dynamic business environment.

In 2018, Mr. Kalkhof joined the German Aerospace Agency "Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt" (DLR),
where he became a crucial member of the satellite ground station group. His responsibilities
included modernizing existing software systems by integrating advancements such as microservice architecture,
web services, and web client interfaces.

As part of his role at DLR, Mr. Kalkhof represented the organization in international collaborative efforts.
Initially, he participated in the CCSDS - Cross Support Service Management Working Group. Later, he became involved with
the Cross Support Transfer Services (CSTS) Group.
